  2. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Ace Painter says:

    in Uk most places won't repair a puncture if in outer third of tyre

  3. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Kenneth Schilling says:

    If you tried to make the auto parts people pay for a lost sale they would probably tell you that if you wanted the part faster you should of pick it up yourself.

  4. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars luis cruz says:

    That tire repair took some college training

  5. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Jerry Cromwell says:

    Don't you worry about talking about Ian. I am from Louisiana and know all about it. Besides, there is not a spot in this country which doesn't have extreme weather of some description.

  6. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Kenneth Schilling says:

    The definition from Merriam Webster Dictionary : a removable outer metal band on an automobile wheel to which the tire is attached. There you go Ray so you can look at the definition and you can decide what you will call it.

  7. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars A1 B2 C3 says:

    Its a a nissan… Those levers were probably recently replaced… On my 3rd set of door handles for my '13 pathfinder..

  8. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars fubar totale says:

    Piston compressors are really inefficient, screw type are much better and have dropped in price drastically the last few years.

  9. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Jeff4son says:

    Could the musty smell be the towel in the back seat?

  10. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Albert Langer says:

    Tops to your wife re wiper blades. In the 'nid 70s on a Saturday it was repair/modification day at my parents'. Mates of different trades. My wife-to-be was active and learnt, 7 years later she repaired the left front of her brother's car. Whilst the removal was OK the wrecking yard tried to rip them off with a calliper. My wife asked for another. Bro's car was repaired and thus a family story.

  11. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars fubar totale says:

    Youre talking about a 1-2000 watt laser unit to strip off rust like your demo. about $10,000 to start..
    I'm an old school machinist and we used to put blocks of camphor in each drawer, the oil evaporates and coats the tools and smells good too.

  12. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars TEAC Fan says:

    Yes, I did enjoy this video. All of them in fact.

  13. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Jason Williams says:

    In your most humblest opinion. Does nitrogen O2 mixture better or same as 100% O2 in a tire? Would being in different parts of the country be any kind of factor In the effectiveness of N O2 vs 100% O2.

  14. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Hola! Jesse Dery says:

    The laser cleaners can be used for stripping paint too. I also want one.

  15. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Ruckin Ehround says:

    I have see that lazier system in action….works great. Mucho expensive $$$$$$. But yeah very nice.

  16. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Mark Cleveland says:

    You may be interested to know in the 1930s and earlier, what we call a dip stick, was originally called a bayonet guage.
    Love watching you do what you do.

  17. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Jess Treloar says:

    Leave the bare metal tool in the sun for a few minutes and then wipe them down with just about any oil. Clean off the excess, the metal will absorb a minuscule amount of the oil and retard the oxidation.

  18. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Nick Hempsall says:

    Don’t forget to check the wiper blade when you get home and then compliment the wife unit on her excellent efforts.

  19. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars John Smith says:

    The nissan air filter design is very stupid.

  20. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Martin Miller says:

    Get some d gel from a phone man eats rust safe for hands smells like oranges. I believe the active ingredient is derived from orange peelings. D lemonine?

  21. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars pete d says:

    Theory amongst mobile tire repair techs is Rain makes nails, etc lol stand on end causing increase in flats .

  22. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars julius liles says:

    Next best to a laser, steel wool and wd40.

  23. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Hola! micheal _199710 says:

    Hey man, I’ve been watching your videos for a while. I am having a little bit of an issue I would like to ask you for some advice I have a 2000 1500 Silverado four-wheel-drive with a 5.3 L in it and I am replacing the shift cable because it’s worked. I’ve gotten to a new one put it in, but it doesn’t seem like it wants to shift gears at all like it’s a two piece connector and it doesn’t seem like it wants to click together at all and I wanted to ask you what I can I do to get that fixed

  24. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars David Sparks says:

    SPRAY BOTTLE WITH BRAGGS ACV AND MIX WITH WATER HALF N HALF…IT WILL ELIMINATE EVERY MILDEWEY VAPOR…

  25. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Gino Bragoli says:

    Didn't fancy removing the debris from the air filter housing then Ray? Or is that only if there is an air filter sale😂

  26. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Jim Omega says:

    Judging by state of air filter, smell will be caused by rotting leaf debris in the airbox below wipers !

  27. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars J C says:

    You like Russian accents so how about "daspedanya" (transliteration)

  28. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Tyler Durden says:

    Without watching the whole video, a musty smell can come from the air conditioning on start up due to built up water in the evaporator coil

  29. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Mike Mcguire says:

    👍 👍

  30. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Cameron Cashatt says:

    i love my 3/8 stubby impact. i can get it within 5-10ftlbs of were i need it to be.

  31. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Trey White says:

    Wife unit… I like that

  32. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars MrPesky1 says:

    I wonder if the spare tire well in the back is doing an impersonation of a kiddie pool? 🤔

  33. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Stanley Mcfalls The Southern Comedian says:

    Brake cleaner at its best 👌

  34. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Jesse Lemons says:

    I like oil changes lol

  35. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars James Fry says:

    You do know you don’t have to take the bolt and clips out to change the air filter 😂

  36. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars stanley koziol says:

    just as a note if you look michelin tires like on that car have the little tire man several times along the out side of the tread fun note

  37. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Kim H says:

    Good Job for you wife Ray!

  38. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars iconoclad says:

    How do you get away with calling her your "wife unit"? She must have a good sense of humour.

  39. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Eric Brott says:

    Ray you should make a t shirt that has your phone interpretation on it, like Der dee derr dee doo, absolutely love your content, keep up the great work

  40. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Gary Carroll says:

    I live here in Reno. I needed a tire patched. No tire shop in town puts a patch on the inside. They just plug. Glad to see you doing old school.

  41. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Zoron Stillwater says:

    Hey is it true many car insurance companies are turning down claims due to the hurricane? I know home insurance is giving people the old "You don't have flood insurance" scam so I was wondering about autos. Answer if your job allows

  42. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Don's Junkmail says:

    Don't forget you got an arraignment at family court with the Chickens…

  43. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Covers n Tributes says:

    I can't get over the level of detail you put in some of the most menial of tasks. this is the definitive sign of a GREAT MECHANIC!!! You actually and genuinely care about your job and the customers you service. If I lived anywhere near Florida, you'd DEFINITELY be my go to guy! Keep up the god work Ray. DOOOODLE DEE DOOOO!!! 😂😂

  44. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars GRIM REAPERS CREED says:

    I noticed at my work, the 1st years don't even clean the inside..they just throw a patch on and call it a day..

  45. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Don's Junkmail says:

    After that patch …
    The wheel bearing needs repacking.

  46. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars HUBBABUBBA DOOPYDOOP says:

    That looks like a new lift compared to the one next to it.

  47. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Don's Junkmail says:

    Mr Spock vulcanizing…
    very logical.

  48. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Reid M. says:

    breakfree clp and some 0000 steel wool will clean that rust right up. Put a light coat of clp on them before you store them and no more rust.

  49. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Don's Junkmail says:

    Muriatic acid….and it works well on service writers papercuts .

  50. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Bones_1 says:

    A Wire-wheel works good for quickly de-rusting tools also..

  51. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Jon Krohn says:

    Here In good ol Michigan we call inner liner seal, bead seal. I use it to go over the patch but also on the bead of the wheel to make the wheel and tire seal better because corrosion Is always a big problem here and the corrosion can build up so thick it makes tires leak.

  52. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Don's Junkmail says:

    Musty smell…depends who they are..did they sweat or we're they wet.

  53. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Tidewater Tail Chaser says:

    Much caffeine Ray?
    Long time sub liked the "welding pliers" and know you reference. I use an ozone machine to combat interior odors. That client's vehicle appears to require a good cleaning and perhaps Auto Shocker ClO2 car interior odor eliminator as the owner smelled musty. You do have a legitimate claim on your employer's inability to secure readily available parts, at your loss.
    Is this job here really a front for your actual business of your YouTube Channel that makes more than your sideline job?

  54. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars 700 CLUB says:

    I love the Pew Pew. Lol

  55. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars TankGuy3 says:

    Ray, tell the parts delivery guy that you will remove one part from his vehicle for every sale you miss because the parts are late.

  56. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Randy Ogren says:

    Wife unit. Love it!!

  57. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars New Horizons says:

    You want a rust laser? So does us Michiganders. XD I remember seeing that laser when it first came out. Me and my friend were flipping out watching the videos. lol

  58. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Xlaxsauce says:

    We used to have a great way for compressing air in an adiabatic way. In Ontario there was a station that made compressed air to deliver to bussinesses with a man made waterfall of sorts. The waterfall would pull air down with it and the pipe where the water travelled took the air and there'd be a bell where the air would gather. Since the water is always with the air it keeps it at the water temperature at all times so there is little moisture in the air and the system basically relies solely on water flow.

  59. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars David Hecker says:

    Short video but it was nice spending time with you. Have a good day ray.

  60. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Go Canada says:

    RUSTY TOOLS …. wire wheel the rust off, then spray them with cheap hairspray ! (laquer), no more rust !

  61. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars How to Suck at Gaming says:

    personally, I think that repair was far too close to the sidewall. I would have recommended a tire, and made them sign a waiver if they elected to have us patch it.

  62. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars pskton says:

    While I appreciate the paper protection, I really dislike when they are left in my vehicle for me to get rid of.

  63. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars zannus says:

    Good old Nissan oil caps welding themselves to the valve cover

  64. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars 404 not found says:

    We have a 2017 rouge, it's been a great vehicle. First service i replaced axle, transmission fluid, transfer case fluid to all amsoil synthetics including engine. Great video ray. 👍

  66. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars HUNTERxGARRETT says:

    Just a heads up Ray, I am a Tech at a higher end dealer. I have seen many of our cars come in with water intrusion issues and found the carpet to be dry to the touch. This happens because of the way our carpets are made and other manufacturers may be the same. We have a vapor barrier of sorts between the carpet surface and the very thick layer of foam below the carpet surface. Sometimes many gallons of water will be in a car and the customer won't know until there are corrosion issues, creating warning messages on the dash. I have found the manufactures do this to make room for wiring harnesses and structural supports under the carpet. Not to say there was water under the carpets in your case, I uphold my respect for you as a mechanic! Love the vids.

  68. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Ron says:

    Try (Blaster) metal rust remover bath cleans rust of tools, not as fun as the Lazer rust remover but way cheaper

  69. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Chris Blackmore says:

    I’m surprised Kalifornia hasn’t mandated we use electric tools already. I’d rather use the battery ones anyways, as I don’t have to drag around an air hose.

  70. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars OTB Cliff says:

    The big water tornadoes are good for our trees as long as they aren’t really strong clears out the trees.

  71. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Tim D says:

    Maybe the musty smell was coming from the a/c.

  72. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Jerry Newberry says:

    That rust laser, as we all do

  73. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars William Sanders says:

    WD40 is great surface rust remover for tools!

  74. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars THADDEUS TECHNIQUE says:

    LOL! Wife unit.

  75. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Nancy Ryan says:

    good evening

  76. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Mara Milas says:

    Chalk,or charcoal, inthe toolbox to prevent rust, I think.

  77. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Peter G says:

    you wouldn't want to use that rust removing laser on a lot of the vehicles you seem to get as there wouldn't be much left of them afterwards

  78. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Earl Edwards says:

    I had this EXACT thing happen to me; screw in my tire. There is another story behind this but I will keep this comment short. I couldn’t get to a repair place because of the job with long hours. The tire held up for a day and a half and the screw worked its way out and I was on the side of the freeway putting on my spare. Tire is destroyed.

  79. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Dana Rostron says:

    First person in a long time I've seen correctly patch a tire from the inside snd and take the extra time to add sealant internally. Good job 👏 👍 👌 🙌

  80. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Colton Sills says:

    please let us know whether or not the wife unit did indeed install the wiper blades correctly

  81. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Douglas says:

    Very good video. Now I know how to change my engine air filter on my Rogue.

  82. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Chase Kelsey says:

    Nothing against snap on but Milwaukee all the way

  83. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Kenneth Baker says:

    Have a great day Ray

  84. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars kurt nulf says:

    Instead of wasting your time on the interior of the vehicle I would be more concerned about the differential and the transmission to make sure the gear oil wasn`t milky or that the transmission fluid didn`t have any water in it then i would check the interior

  85. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars mousetrap 134 says:

    Dear Ray, look like you use regular compress air for that nail tire but it had a Azote valve cap already ?? does your chop have Azote air refill ? All the best keep safe with hurricane season

  86. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars HighSierraDrifter says:

    And it was on this day that I learned modern tires no longer have tubes. Geez.

  87. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars sand 007 says:

    The tire makes a satisfying 'pop' when installed! 😀

  88. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Doc says:

    Wife unit? 😁 Sounds like " The Coneheads " !!

  89. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Skyjet Ende says:

    Those specific nissan oil caps and alot of honda caps just get really stuck on, even if it wasnt put back on over tight. I like to use some soft-handled pliers and use the handle end as a bit of an assist to open them without straining muscles or causing an overuse of force which has sliced my digits on adjacent sharp edges plenty of times.

  90. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Troll With A Purpose says:

    This is why I will very rarely spray tools, nearly wipe only

  91. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Wood Stream says:

    I'm sure there is a lawyer willing to take your money so you can recoup the lost filter sale.

  92. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Raymond Butler says:

    It used to be known as a rim, then modern humans started changing the name to everything and it is now called wheel.

  93. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Chris B says:

    Ray, maybe try some OSPHO for the surface rusting??

  94. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars James White says:

    When the tire is balanced does it stay balanced as it wears?

  95. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Wing Nut says:

    Hey Ray, love your videos. Glad you’re back. You inspired me to go get some wobbly extensions. Thanks, man.

  96. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Dean Judy says:

    Cleaning vinegar will take the rust off

  97. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars ian burit says:

    Nice to hear Rays voice back in the groove again.. thanks Ray–Ian….UK

  98. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars thereissomecoolstuff says:

    RR you pull the floor mats and look for condensation on the bottom of the mats. Then you know.

  99. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Hayley says:

    Since the oxidation is not super uniform, I assume the laser method would probably leave a lot of pitting

  100. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Workshop Rebuild says:

    Very informational video Ray! I'll be watching more videos of yours. Thanks for sharing this laser cleaning video, I really appreciate it😃
